From her early days working in the London comedy scene of the early 80s as a singer and musician alongside the likes of Jo Brand and Julian Clary, to her position now as one of the greatest living interpreters of song, Barb Jungr has devoted her life to entertainment. Now, the iconic artist is coming to artsdepot in Finchley on Saturday, November 23.
Mentioned in the same breath as Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone, Barb Jungr’s ability to make others’ songs her own has brought her rave reviews around the world. Comprising songs from Bob Dylan, Jacques Brel, and her own compositions, written in collaboration with Mike Lindup, Jonathan Cooper and Jamie Safir.
The conversation between Bob, Brel and Barb is a particularly stimulating one, not least because of the way in which gender informs all of their work.
Artsdepot, 5 Nether Street, North Finchley, Saturday, November 23, 7.30pm. Details: 020 8369 5454 artsdepot.co.uk
